Since we opened the shop at Netil Market we have been meaning to do a blog post about the different traders operating from this corner of London and to let you know why we think that this is the place to be on a Saturday or Sunday. Turns out we don't have to as our neighbours at Fetch & Follow have been waxing lyrical about the market and produced an excellent round up of all the things that there are to see, buy and, most importantly, eat at Netil Market. We jumped at the chance to share this here (okay, so it's akin to copying someone else's homework) and second their list of reasons why Netil Market is just so great.

If you haven't had a look at Fetch & Follow, make sure to do so. Their neckerchiefs are quite simply adorable and our dog Gizzi will do almost anything for a gingerbread bone treat. Here goes...

For over the past 3 years our home has been based in Netil Market, which is a creative community of designer-makers and food. During the week the atmosphere is relaxed with the permanent resident’s stores and workshops being open and ready to welcome customers. While at the weekend the place comes alive with the space filling up with market stalls showcasing the best of local independent designers and vintage finds with the addition renowned street food traders. Making it the perfect spot to come and spend a Saturday afternoon.

Terrone Coffee Co. are the only Italian speciality coffee producer in the UK to roast their own beans in Italy-in a refurbished 1950s Vittoria machine with a customised flame that doesn't hit the beans directly. The result is a slightly more fruity and sweet blend than you might expect from an Italian coffee – http://www.Terrone.co.uk/
